+ Church honors elder for service
New Horizons Christian Church recently honored one of its own for more than five decades of service.
Raymond Schmidt, 94, retired from the eldership of the church at the end of 2014. During those years, Schmidt served in many capacities, including Bible School teacher for young boys, choir member, general fix-it man for the church facilities, a deacon and an elder.
As Philip Walter, chairman of the elders, presented a plaque, he said Schmidt had touched many lives over the years. Following the presentation of the plaque, the ladies of the church provided a reception.
New Horizons Christian Church is located at 1330 Winter Garden-Vineland Road.
